Hello everyone! I'm new to both vaping and these forums... I've been using a blu (not the disposables, these refillable ones have 18mg of nicotine which is kind of too low for me) and while it's keeping me (mostly) away from the analogues, It's not doing the trick. The thing has very little TH most of the time, but a lot more of it the first few hits, very little flavor, and just a bit too little nicotine. Forget about the battery life... very aggravating. I'm planning on ordering some supplies from Hoosierecig.com (kgo vv, vision spinner, and some various cartomizers and tanks and stuff). I smoked Marlboro reds for 18 years, about 2 packs a day, and now I'm going through about 2 of the blu cartridges a day. It's doing the trick, but I'm craving more vitamin N and definitely more TH. So, with all that being said, can anyone recommend any juice flavors, juice vendors, or even what combo of PG/VG I should get? Really fruity stuff is out of the question for me; I never like anything fruity except fruit itself. Some of the Highbrow flavors looked intriguing, and I kind of like the coffee flavor from blu. (I'm a big fan of coffee, tea, and candy spice... as well as whiskey and beer) Any advice is greatly appreciated, and sorry for the lack of paragraph formatting... for some reason the "enter" button is not doing it...

There are many good vendors of ejuice out there like Heathers Heavenly vape, Rawr, EC Blends, etc., etc.. I've been vaping for over 3 years now and because there are so many choices and juices are so subjective you will be on the hunt constantly. I, along with thousands of other vapers have many, many favorites because new vendors with their new juices come online almost daily. You will try tons of new flavors and like a lot of them until you try others. It's a virtual "kid in a candy store" situation and have fun and enjoy vaping because it is an experience that'll almost over whelm you but it sure is fun! Vape on.

HHV tobacco.
Fruity flavors never appealed to me either. Citrus... I hate citrus in all of its forms. Got free samples along with my order and now I'm hooked on fruits and not tobacco line :)
Maybe it's just me, but I've ordered juices that I thought I would like, based on what I like to eat/drink and it didn't work out at all. I ended with loving flavors of stuff that I hate to eat/drink.
Strong fruit flavor was actually what kept me in vaping after tobacco disappointment and false ads saying you can get same cigarette taste out of ecig.

I will second, or third, maybe fourth (?) the recommendation for HHV (Heather'S Heavenly Vapes) tobaccos, especially their Purity line, Naturally Extracted Tobaccos. Well worth looking into. I personally have tried and loved, Gandalf, Darkhorse, Heavenly Tobacco, Hunstman, and have heard great things about, and have on their way via USPS Serendipity, Shadowfax, Gollum, Pirates Booty, and Dragons Fire.

Vermillion Rivers Premium Kentucky Tobacco line is also wonderfully rich.

To me, though, these are more of a fine pipe tobacco flavor. Cigaretter tobacco flavors, if that's what you're after might be better served from USA mix (found various places I think, but not sure the names, google it) and http://vaporrater.com/ website review of Indigo Vapor's The Duke sounds promising as well.

Funny you mention the coffee flavor you get from the Blu, been trying to convert my wife with my Provari but it puts out too much TH and vapor for her, so bought her a dispo Blu, which she is enjoying a little. She disagrees that it has a coffee taste to her palate, but it sure does to mine!

You are only going through two Blu cartridges per day?

That must be somewhere around 1ml of juice per day, which is almost nothing compared to the rest of us...
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/polls/153112-how-much-juice-do-you-use-per-day.html

No wonder you're not getting enough nicotine!


One blu cartridge is supposed to be a pack of cigarettes, so I've limited myself to that... I've tried most locally available disposables; it seems these ecigs you find in stores that look like analogues are a horrible ripoff. I've tried a friends ego with a vivi nova tank on it... and it was like heaven compared to my blu.

So I'm going to go with HHV for the Gandalf and Shadowfax (I still smoke a pipe on occasion and I'm a LOTR fan, so those appeal to me.) and I'm going to get a tobacco flavors from Dekang via Hoosiers (I've heard Dekang is just PG, can anyone confirm that?)

I'm still deciding on a cinnamon and a coffee flavor to get, and I'm thinking of getting some of the super strong (nic) coffee flavor to mix in with other stuff so I can boost 'em up if needed.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions, and more advice is always welcome!

First off... welcome to ECF, and congrats for taking the first steps to become a non-smoker. In a very short time you won't even be looking back to the analogues...!

I have tasted the best of the best out there and my recommendations for juice would be:

Alice in Vapeland... Anything that sounds good. This is one of my favorite vendors, and everything is very high quality and customizable.

Fancee Juice... Meese Tracks and Cloudarita are my faves from them at the moment, but again, this is another really high quality vendor.

The Plume Room... Candied Cavendish... it is my current fave tobacco, but a word of warning... it doesn't taste like tobacco really... more like golden grahams cereal. But its amazing!

Highbrow Vapor... Another great high quality vendor that lets you customize your flavors. my faves with them are the desserts and the fruits. It tastes soooo real!

In all my juice tasting... these are the vendors that stand out the most to me. The set themselves apart from the rest in all aspects, from quality of juices to customer service. Sure, there are others that have good juices, but in my eyes they just don't compare to the quality of what I have listed above.
